Galaxy Digital, Multicoin Capital and Jump Crypto are looking to raise $1 billion to build a treasury dedicated to Solana’s SOL (SOL), Bloomberg reported on Monday.
The three crypto firms have joined hands and have hired Cantor Fitzgerald as the lead banker, the report said, citing people familiar with the matter. They plan to buy out a listed firm and create a digital asset treasury company, the report added.
Digital asset treasuries have become all the rage recently, with many firms copying the strategy popularized by Michael Saylor’s bitcoin (BTC) holding firm Strategy (MSTR).
